On the recordNovember 12, 2003
I would say I almost never agree with Reverend Sharpton, but I have seen the diligence with which he and other civil rights leaders have pounced upon any politician who has ever dared hint at any kind of racial slur or attack on an African American. At least he has shown this degree of consistency, that he has now spoken up against those who are Democrats who may have been guilty of a racial slur, and come to the defense of an African American, even though he disagrees with her. I think it appropriate for us to note that.
